The author's specific use of language is known as diction. Diction refers to a literary device in which an author choses specific words and style of expression in order to fulfill a particular purpose. Diction can indicate whether a text is formal or informal. It can also motivate the reader to react in a particular way to the story. The choice of specific nouns, verbs and phrases can also contribute to developing the meaning of a work.
